Basecoin cmd tool generates genesis.json unmarshaling error.

[LeeBlues]

After creating new key by basecli new key command, I tried to start basecoin app through basecoin start cmd. Unfortunately It generates error message like this : ERROR: Error in LoadGenesis: unmarshaling genesis file: encoding/hex: odd length hex string.

I tested it at macOS 10.12.5 and Ubuntu 16.04.

@LeeBlues Please send the terminal output along with commands. I have not had such trouble.

My guess is you have an old basecoin genesis file (pre-tendermint 0.10).

rm -rf ~/.basecoin ~/.basecli
unset BCHOME

basecli keys new FooBar
basecoin init <foobar addr>
basecoin start
...

Please try that and show me the output. Thanks.

It works. thanks! I initialized basecoin through name of the key instead of actual address.

Okay, we should do a check in basecoin init to ensure that we create a valid genesis file. I'll make a little fix for this.

Okay, added this check in 65e9905

Will work better with 0.6.2
